1. Introduction
APRO MLC rugged metal 2.5” SATA III SSD – BON-II series provides high capacityflash memory Solid State Drive (SSD)
that electrically complies with Serial ATA 3.0 (SATA) standard. APRO Rugged Metal 2.5” SATA III MLC SSD – BON-II
Series support SATA Gen-III (6.0 GB/s) with high performance. The main used flash memories are MLC-NAND type flash
memory chips. The available disk capacities are 32GB, 64GB, 128GB and256GB.
The operating temperature grade is optional for Standard grade 0°C ~ 70°C and wide temp grade with conformal coating
supports -40°C ~ +85°C. The data transfer performance by sequentialread is up to 502.8 MB/sec, and sequential write is
up to 269.7 MB/sec.
APRO Rugged Metal 2.5” SATA III MLC SSD – BON-II Series supports Fast Erase/Secure Erase which initiates by
hardware design and software vendor commands. Fast Erase Procedure is one of the defaults sanitizing procedure in
BON-II Series. Fast Erase enables users to erase entire disk contents within seconds; 32GB SSD needs about 6 seconds,
and 256GB needs about 13 seconds to run the fast erase procedure for whole disk completely.
APRO Rugged Metal2.5” SATA III MLC SSD built-inDDRIII 2Gbits SDRAM products provide a high level interface to the
host computer. This interface allows a host computer to issuecommands to the Rugged Metal2.5” SATA III MLC SSD to
read or write blocks of memory. Each sector is protected by a powerful 40 bits per 1024 bytes error correction (ECC).
APRO Rugged Metal 2.5” SATA III MLC SSD BON-II Series intelligent controller manages interface protocols, data
storage and retrievalas wellas ECC, defect handling and diagnostics, power management andclock control.

1.3. Flash Management Technology - Static Wear Leveling
In order to gain the best management for flash memory, APRO2.5” SATA III MLC SSD BON-II Series supports Static
Wear-leveling technology to manage the Flash system. The life of flash memory is limited; the management is to increase
the life of the flash product.
A static wear-leveling algorithm evenly distributes data over an entire Flash cell array and searches for the least used
physical blocks. The identified low cycled sectors are used to write the data to those locations. If blocks are empty, the
write occurs normally. If blocks containstatic data, it moves that data to a more heavily used locationbefore it moves the
newly written data. The static wear leveling maximizes effective endurance Flash array compared to no wear leveling or
dynamic wear leveling.

1.4. DRAM Buffer
SSDs designed with a DDRIII SDRAM buffer which is support high transfer rate as a data buffer for the SSD; SSD with
SDRAM buffer is able to deliver excellent random data transfer speed.
1.5. Power Interrupt Data Protection Technology
In the event of an unstable power supply, SSD loses power before it can finish programming process from host to flash,
this may cause data being written to the incorrect block and further leads to data corruption.
Power Interrupt Data Protection Technology is applied with several tantalum capacitors to provide power buffering after
host power interruption. The Data Protection Technology provides enough time for the SSD controller can write all DRAM
buffer data to flash, all data will be protectedand withoutdata loss.
The ability of Power Interrupt Data Protection Technology is able to write 1.28MB of data within 60ms.
This ensures all data in the DRAM buffer can be successfully written into flash.
Traditionally, super capacitors were applied in most SSD products, the advantages of tantalum capacitors over super
capacitors are:
Tantalum capacitors are electrolyte free.
It is able to maintain its designed capacitance for severalyears when used within design limits.
Wide operating temperature range.
Tantalumcapacitors can operate fromtemperature range of -55C to +125C, which is very suitable for industrialand
military usage.
Tantalum capacitors have an ultimate high volumetric efficiency(CV/cc).
For example, a 50-microfarad tantalum capacitor can be equal and to properly replace a 500-microfarad aluminum
capacitor.
